What will be the result of Monday's Gallup Presidential Poll?
Settled as Obama leads by 9 or 10 points
Background:Well, Obama is maintaining a strong lead through October with only two weeks to go. McCain needs a major game changer to pull out a win -- which isn't to say that isn't possible. Undecideds are decreasing and Obama has held the majority of registered voters (i.e. over 50%) for over a week. Will McCain be able to turn things around this week? Will Obama further his lead? Or have we begun to stagnante in the Obama +10 range?
Note: Gallup polls are the result of a 3 day rolling average so the poll released on Monday will be based on surveys taken Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This market will continue to use the registered voters numbers it has been using since first introduced.
Settlement details:http://www.gallup.com/tag/Gallup%2bDaily.aspx posted near 1300ET on Monday October 27.
